Photo Coverage: The John W. Engeman Theater's THE COTTAGE Celebrates Opening Night

By:

The John W. Engeman Theater's THE COTTAGE opened last night, July 23 and runs through September 6, 2015. Below, BroadwayWorld brings you photos from the opening night bows and after-party!

THE COTTAGE is a new rollicking farce inspired by the works of Noel Coward. Set in the English countryside in 1923, this tale of sex, betrayal and, oh yes, love, unfolds when Sylvia Van Kipness decides to expose her love affair to her husband and her lover's wife. The true meanings of fate, identity and marriage are called into question as a surprising and hilarious web of secrets unravels in this ridiculous and potentially murderous romantic comedy.
